ahmad-zuhd:1258ʿAbdullāh from my father > ʿAffān > Jaʿfar b. Sulaymān > Mālik b. Dīnār

[AI] Someone told me that they saw 'Amir ibn 'Abd Qais calling for oil and pouring it onto his hand. Jafar then described how he wiped one hand onto the other, and recited the verse from Surah Al-Mu'minun: "And ˹We brought forth˺ a tree issuing from Mount Sinai which produces oil and food for those who eat." (23:19). He then anointed his head and beard.

الزهد لأحمد:١٢٥٨حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ دِينَارٍ قَالَ

حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ رَأَى عَامِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ قَيْسٍ دَعَا بِزَيْتٍ فَصَبَّهُ عَلَى يَدِهِ كَذَا وَصَفَ جَعْفَرٌ مَسَحَ إِحْدَاهُمَا عَلَى الْأُخْرَى ثُمَّ قَالَ {تَخْرُجُ مِنْ طُورِ سَيْنَاءَ تَنْبُتُ بِالدُّهْنِ [185] وَصِبْغٍ لِلْآكِلِينَ} [المؤمنون 20] قَالَ فَدَهَنَ رَأْسَهُ وَلِحْيَتَهُ
